Storytelling Events in Ottawa

(un)Told is a monthly gathering built around a simple idea: everyone has a story worth telling, and storytelling is something you learn by being in the room.

This is a cross-cultural, come-as-you-are night of real, personal stories told live in ten minutes or less. No notes, no sets, no props, and no pressure to perform. Some people share. Many listen. All of it counts.

#### What to expect

Listening is welcome: Many people just come to listen. There’s no expectation to share.
Sharing is arranged in advance: If you’d like to tell a story, contact Brad ahead of time so we can make sure it’s a good fit.
Everyday stories are valued: Your story doesn’t need to be polished. Ordinary moments often resonate the most.
Support is available: Story coaches are usually present. Coaching is optional and informal.
Learning happens by listening: Even if you never tell a story, you’ll learn how storytelling works.
